3 goes into 5, 1 time. It could be answered : 5/3 = 1 with a remainder of 2. Or take the remainder and put over the divisor to answer in mixed numbers: 5/3 = 1 2/3.

Another way is to do some long division. 5.000/3 3 goes into 5, 1 time with a remainder of 2. Bring down the 0. 3 goes into 20, 6 times with a remainder of 2. You can see that the remainder keeps a pattern of being 2. This causes a repeating decimal. You could continue, but you would see that your answer will turn out 1.66666666... With a never-ending line of 6's.

How do you compare one ratio against another ratio?

You divide them. For instance, to compare 1:3 against 3:5, treat them as fractions (1/3 and 3/5) and divide, in this case getting 5/9, which says that 1:3 is slightly more than half of 3:5. Remember that you can divide fractions by inverting one of them and multiplying - 1/3 divided by 3/5 is the same as 1/3 multiplied by 5/3.
